So we have “can” + “suggests”. Isn’t there a mathematics of these weasel words? If not, why not? And then that study of 363,988 people. Isn’t that a curious number? Why so many, so exact?

Could this be a “shock&awe” number, to discourage argument?<br /> Oh, By the way Filthy, this fag in your final sentence, is it a Tory or a Lib-Dem fag you’ll be having?

He then went on to interview I Gilmore and did not ask him any questions at all, just qualified everything in the statment about alcohol. Indeed the newscaster even asked, "why doesn't the government just put higher taxes on booze just like they did with tobacco?"<br /><br />The world has gone fucking potty!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072165710888952465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3508346572086151757.post-61172400593107011282011-04-08T13:05:15.827+01:002011-04-08T13:05:15.827+01:00Studies have shown that these cancers have risen i...Studies have shown that these cancers have risen in proportion to reality tv progs such as X Factor!Smoking Hothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04534745989363293923noreply@blogger.com
